Vista - Full Text Search Issue

I installed the Windows Search 4.0 (KB940157) option to enable full text
searching in my messages, and while it no longer advises me to do so (install
Windows Search 4.0 to enable full text search), it does NOT do a full text
search of the messages - it still *only* searches in the Subject line. What
is wrong &/or how do I correct this?

I am using Windows Live Mail v2009 (Build 14.0.8064.0206).

Thank you!

WS doesn't know about WLMail yet. You have to point out your
Message Store to it (e.g. as a collection of *.nws and .eml files)
In contrast it does know about OE so there is no mention from WS
about how it is finding all OE's messages in its .dbx files, just that
it is, plus the evidence that it is from having searches work which
return .nws and .eml files from there. ; )


Good luck

Ok, I see the Email & Location options in WS, but I don't see where (in
either WLMail or WS) to actually set any message or email location.

In honesty, I haven't been very impressed with WS and actually uninstalled
it a while back as I just didn't see any advantages with it over the basic
Windows Search tool.

(I still think this is a basic feature that should have been built in to
WLMail from the beginning, not requiring a separate add-on - overall, I find
WS astoundingly lacking in every aspect and would keep it uninstalled were it
not for this requirement. VERY poor programming & design, IMPO)

Both products provide poor usability for searching threads IMO.

I usually find Ctrl-Shift-F sufficient for my searching needs.
I don't like the filter effect that WLMail displays when its search
bar is used and would definitely rather have the Shift-F3 Find
and F3 Find again navigation functions that OE provides instead.
